Hello to all our t-potters.
this week we are heading our way to a wonderful SCSer, in Ohio...Nillysilly_ol'bear.
If you want super inspiration go to her blog. Super story. After you read this you will get a chuckle everytime you put on your socks.
I was going to do a picture about socks on the front...but got to thinking about her SCS name. I am Hoping I am right when I believe she is a fellow Pooh lover. I am a huge fan...well I love them all but Eyeore is my fav. So I always have somelittle thing with Pooh around and I thought I would bring her a big Hundred Acre Wood bear hug, right to her...or at least try...:0).
I also thought I would case one of her cards in her honour. There were a couple I loved , but saw this one...Jellypark Happiness in the Leaves by nillysilly_ol'bear at Splitcoaststampers, which got me thinking to leaves and trees. I usually do not do the " crooked " style as I have trouble NOT wanting to straighten it up , like a picture on a wall, but this lil guy jumping into the leaves was so cute I had to give it a try.
I had this neat dp I wanted to just use as a bg as it almost looks like the old Christopher Robin, then I did the layers, stapmed the big tree, sponged the grass and sky and then cheated with a sticker. the sentiment is also a quote from Pooh that I just printed off from the computer and cut it out and sponged it, raised it up, and that was it. Easy breezy...lol...almost...still took me a couple hours as hard to pick out colors...lol...that Libra thing...not good for decisions... Was going to add a couple leaves and a bit of ribbon, but finally decided to keep it more simple..:0)
so here is a hug for you...Jennifer...Hope it will brighten your day...:0)
Thanks for visiting.

You know, I 'm really glad that someone brought that nilly-silly ol' bear to the teaparty. What an awesome card. I'm sure this will bring a smile to Jennifer.
